Asmodeus as depicted in Collin de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal.
Asmodeus (/ˌæzməˈdiːəs/; Ancient Greek: Ἀσμοδαῖος, Asmodaios) or Ashmedai (/ˈæʃmɪˌdaɪ/; Hebrew: אַשְמְדּאָי, romanized: ʾAšmədʾāy; see below for other variations) is a king of demons in the legends of Solomon and constructing Solomon's Temple.[1]
His story features variously in Talmudic stories where he is the king of the shedim. The Quran refers to a "puppet" in the Story of Solomon in Surah Ṣād verses 30-40, believed by many mufassirūn (authorized exegetes) to be a reference to Asmodeus known as the king of jinn.[citation needed]
In Christian lore, Asmodeus is mostly known from the deuterocanonical Book of Tobit. He is the primary antagonist and disrupts the marriages of Sarah.[1][2] Peter Binsfeld classifies Asmodeus as the "demon of lust".
